09 Wagon, Audible alarm on/off broke?

[eyeke]

Good afternoon everyone!
I'm at my wits end trying to fix this problem before my wife strangles me. It seems when I borrowed her 09 outback wagon, I somehow disabled her audible alarm when the doors lock/unlock.
After following the steps in the manual to fix it, I'm still at a loss.

2009, 2008 Outback Legacy, Tribeca, Impreza
Audible Chirp when locking/unlocking give you an audible signal when the doors lock and unlock. If desired, you may turn the audible signal off.
Do the following to deactivate the audible signal. You can also use the same steps to restore the function.
1. Sit in the driver’s seat and shut all doors and the rear gate.
2. Hold down the UNLOCK side of the power door locking switch.
3. While holding down the “UNLOCK” side of the power door locking switch, pull the key out and re-insert it into the ignition switch at least 6 times within 10 seconds
after Step 2.
4. Open and close the driver’s door once within 10 seconds after Step 3.
5. The turn signal lights flash 3 times to indicate completion of the setting.

I completed this and saw the flash indicating completion, but the alarm still won't sound. any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
